Abstract: This study delves into the intricate dynamics shaping young investors' intentions in renewable energy stocks by scrutinising the impact of environmental concern (altruistic value) and economic concern (egoistic value). Additionally, the research examines how green investment knowledge moderates and attitudes mediate the shaping of renewable stock investment intentions. This study utilised a non-probability sampling technique. The data were collected through a structured questionnaire method. There are 256 responses for the data analysis, the data analysis through SMART PLS 4 software. While demonstrating significance in certain studies, economic concern (EC) did not attain statistical significance. EN and EC exhibited robust positive influences on the mediating factor ATT-RSII, along with ATT on RSII. This research significantly contributes to the realms of management, sustainable finance, and investor behaviour, offering actionable implications for financial advisors, investment firms, and policymakers. As the global financial landscape evolves, leveraging these managerial insights becomes imperative for steering towards a more sustainable and responsible investment future.
